"The number of shares reflects a total which is greater than the reporting person's pecuniary interest."
beneficial ownership financial
"The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest."
Beneficial ownership means the person or entity that actually enjoys the benefits of owning shares or other assets — such as receiving dividends, voting rights, or price gains — even if the legal title is held in another name. For investors it matters because knowing who truly controls and profits from a company reveals who can influence decisions, exposes potential conflicts of interest or hidden concentration of power, and affects transparency and risk in the stock.

"The reporting person is a principal of Kahala Capital Advisors LLC."
